What's For Dinner?

Dinner in my kitchen, leftovers will be served.

There's a reception at the Marriott by the competition sponsors. If there's not much food, there is a good restaurant that overlooks San Francisco Bay and the runway out of the airport.

Something light. Our townhouse association had its annual picnic earlier this afternoon and I'm still full.

I had grilled pork chops and steamed cauliflower, planned a strawberry/walnut salad too but didn't get around to eating it.

Drop off the car, dinner with friends at Zen Peninsula and then get in the plane for NYC.

Finishing off the turkey sausage I cooked a few days ago, along with a nuked potato and a salad.

Girl Scout potatoes
Wilted kale salad
Raspberry sorbet

Oh Belle, my mouth is watering - I haven't had Walleye since my divorce. 10 years ago!!!


Last night was chicken breast and a bunch of grapes. Tonight will be dinner at the neighbor's house. Lunch is chicken/fruit salad with the leftover chicken from last night .

To be determined

Walleye is excellent: a ldelicate flavour with firm, flakey flesh..



In-laws over for dinner:
Grilled marinated pork chops
Grilled zucchini, leeks and onions
Brussels sprout slaw
Cherry clafoutis

[QUOTE]Brussels sprout slaw[QUOTE]

That's a dish I've never heard of before.

I'll need to fix something quickly, so dinner will probably be a salad of some kind.

This is a fast and tasty recipe:



Brussels Sprout Salad with Almonds and Parmesan
Servings: Serves 10

Ingredients:
1 cup slivered almonds, lightly toasted in dry frying pan
2 pounds Brussels sprouts
1/4 cup olive oil or 3 tablespoons olive oil and 1 tablespoon truffle oil
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons finely sliced chives
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons finely grated Parmesan cheese


Directions:
-Peel away any yellowed outer leaves, wash and dry Brussels sprouts. Slice from stem to top as thinly as possible.

Thanks, Belle.

I need to stop by the store on the way home, so I'll see what's on sale when I get over there.

Lasagna that my sister's gonna make
meatballs
salad with my cherry tomatoes

Anytime, DS.



Grilled chicken
Stuffed squash blossoms
Wilted kale salad
Lemon custard ice cream with raspberry sauce

Didn't take anything out of the freezer, but I'm thinkin' along the lines of grilled pork chops, spinach w/caramelized Vidalia onions, whole grain Rotini w/creamy garlic & herb sauce, Carvel mini ice cream sammich for dessert.

Italian sausage, a salad and a side dish to be determined.

Chicken tacos
Pinto beans and rice
Avocado salad
Strawberry sorbet

I haven't yet thought that far ahead.

I stopped at KFC on the way home and got hot wings. Now I am very full.

Gotta get to the grocery store tomorrow so I can do some actual cooking this weekend and next week!

Smoked brisket
Fennel slaw
Red potato salad
Strawberry pie

Probably leftovers.

I'm on my own tonight, so I'm debating between Chinese take-out or running across to the supermarket after work and picking up a couple of meatballs to go with leftover lasagna.

Birthday party--Bringing pies

I stopped at a farmers stand this afternoon and got lots of yummy fresh veggies, then I stopped at the grocery store and they had some beef tenderloin/filets on a "cook right away special" so I think they (2 very small ones) will be my supper with some fresh steamed veggies.

For my lunch tomorrow I'm going to make a ham salad stuffed tomato, and bring a few sugar snap peas to munch on.

Tomorrow's dinner will be ribs and corn on the cob and Tuesday will probably be a small roast in the crockpot - a friend will be coming for dinner, so I'll want something ready after work.

Hmm, I'm making myself hungry with all this food for the week talk.
